Chapter 0838: The Storm Rises in the South

"Mingwen, have you finally finished talking to adults?"

When Feng Yongzheng was sighing at Liu Hanzi's bravery and fearlessness, someone behind him suddenly asked.

Feng Yong hurriedly turned around, but saw a man with a long face standing behind him, with a look of joy on his face.

Isn't Zhuge Qiao who is?

Zhuge Qiao's right hand, still holding a child, was staring at Feng Yong with wide eyes.

It is Huang Yueying's biological son Zhuge Zhan, nicknamed Ah Chi, which means belated.

"Brother?! How did you end up here? ”

Feng Yong was very surprised when he saw Zhuge Qiao, and at the same time he was also very surprised.

There are many people in this world who are willing to get close to him, but they don't have too many purposes, and Zhuge Qiao is one of the few.

It's just that after Feng Yong returned to Hanzhong, he didn't have the opportunity to meet Zhuge Qiao.

Because he didn't have Hanzhong at all in the past two years.

"It's only been a few years since I saw you, and Mingwen is now famous all over the world!"

Looking at the tall Feng Junhou in front of him, Zhuge Qiao couldn't help but say with emotion.

Feng Yong laughed and waved his hand again and again: "No matter how famous you are, I can't call you brother?" ”

"But I, who was my elder brother, am still doing nothing, and I am ashamed to be in front of you."

Zhuge Qiao said half-seriously and half-jokingly:

"I shouldn't have been entrusted back then, if I had learned from that Li Wenxuan and cheekily called your brother, I wouldn't be so embarrassed today."

Feng Yong remembered that when he met Zhuge Qiao for the first time, he really regarded himself as his brother, and his heart was ambiguous: "At that time, even if you want to pretend to be small, I don't dare to respond!" ”

After the two finished talking and laughing, Zhuge Qiao lowered his head and introduced Feng Yong to Zhuge Zhan:

"Come, Ah Chi, this is Feng Junhou, you can also call him Brother Feng in the future."

"I've seen Feng Junhou, I've seen Brother Feng."

Xiao Zhengtai Zhuge Zhan bowed to Feng Yong, and then asked Zhuge Qiao with some doubts:

"Mother said a few days ago that Feng Junhou is the brother-in-law of the Feng family, why has she become the brother of the Feng family now?"

Tong Yan Wuji made Feng Yong laugh.

"It turns out that Mingwen has already met Adi?"

"When I first arrived in Hanzhong, I naturally had to come over to meet my wife." Feng Yong nodded and said, "I also told Ah Chi a story." ”

"There is also a song, the song sung by the brother-in-law of the Feng family and the brother of the Feng family is better than that of the mother."

Zhuge Zhan hurriedly added, and at the same time looked at Feng Yong with hope.

This brother-in-law of the Feng family, the story is told beautifully, and the song is also sung beautifully, it is really Ah Chi who likes to be with him.

"I see."

Zhuge Qiao nodded, and then said to Zhuge Zhan, "Ah Chi, I want to talk to Brother Feng about something, can you go to your mother alone first?" ”

Although Zhuge Zhan was a little reluctant, he still nodded.

Zhuge Qiao called someone over and led him away.

"It's pretty smart and cute."

Feng Yong said.

That's what my lord said. Ah Chi is much more talented than me, and Ah Mu spoils him a lot on weekdays. ”

"It's an adult, I often say that Ah Chi has been smart since he was a child, and he can't spoil him too much. Otherwise, there is a suspicion of prematurity, and I am afraid it will not be a heavy weapon. ”

Zhuge Qiao explained.

Feng Yong was not surprised that Zhuge Old Demon would say this: "Prime Minister has always been like this. ”

After all, there is Zhuge Qiao's own example ahead.

A few years ago, Hanzhong was both a front line and a desolate place, especially when the first emperor died and Shu was in turmoil, but Zhuge Qiao was sent to Hanzhong.

Before the Battle of Longyou, if Feng Yong hadn't used the medical resources at hand, Zhuge Qiao was afraid that he would have to be like Zhang Yi, because of overwork, and finally died of illness.

After the Battle of Longyou, Ma Tan was exiled, Li Hui was ready to retire from illness, and Zhuge Old Demon began to integrate Shu into a complete body.

It was in this context that Zhuge Qiao left Hanzhong, which had begun to become the second center of the Great Han, and was sent to Nanzhong.

Anyway, the son of Zhuge Old Demon is not good.

It is not certain whether you can enjoy happiness, but you must share in hardship.

"Why did my brother suddenly return to Hanzhong, could it be that the prime minister has figured it out, and he can't bear to let you go to Nanzhong to feed the mosquitoes again?"

Feng Yong asked.

When Zhuge Qiao heard him say this, his face was a little crying and laughing:

"Mingwen, you should say a few words about these words, if you are heard by adults, I am afraid that you will make adults unhappy."

He wanted to give me a blessing just now.

Feng Yong didn't care, and said secretly in his heart, anyway, he didn't run as fast as me.

"Brother, you haven't said why you came back suddenly?"

Speaking of this, Zhuge Qiao's face was both happy and worried:

"When I left Nanzhong, it was full of news that you died under Xiao Pass, you know, your name, cough ......."

When it comes to the name of the ghost king, some people may not care.

But Zhuge Qiao is an honest man, the so-called ghost king legend of eating human flesh, drinking human blood, and three thousand women at night, how could he be embarrassed to say it in front of Ghost King Feng?

"But the people of Nanzhongyi are unstable?"

Feng Yong heard him mention Nanzhong, and when he saw his demeanor again, he knew what he meant, and took the initiative to mention it for him.

"So you already know the plain text?"

Zhuge Qiao was slightly taken aback.

"Brother, the Xinghan Society has opened so many sugarcane plantations in Nanzhong, how can I not pay attention to the movements in Nanzhong?"

Feng Yong shook his head and smiled.

This brother has nothing to say about his character, and he even deserves to be called a gentleman, but in terms of change, he is lacking.

is just like what the world evaluates: he is not as good as his brother (Zhuge Ke), and his sexual karma is excessive.

Any county adjutant doesn't have to say, but if he wants to go one step further, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult for him.

This is probably the reason why the prime minister wants to hone him.

If you don't grind, you can't make a device!

Taking advantage of the fact that the Han is still quite a family, if you grind for a few more years, you will be able to grow a little.

But the talent is there, and the bigger achievements are impossible to think about.

"It's my ignorance!"

Zhuge Qiao finally reacted.

"Although I know that there are some Yi people in Nanzhong who want to make trouble, the news is not as comprehensive as that of the Governor's Mansion after all. My brother is the chief of the Governor's Mansion, can you tell me about it? ”

Although at the beginning, Feng Yong still used the name of planting sugarcane to trick the people in the Xinghan Society to develop Nanzhong.

But in fact, over the years, compared with Yueshan County, the development progress of other counties in Nanzhong has been a bit slow.

After all, it is much easier to develop the Sunshui River Valley in Yueshan than it is to develop other counties in southern and central China.

As long as the Yiren in the border area between Yueshan County and Hanjia County are settled, there will be a flat road leading directly to Jincheng in Yueshan County.

Coupled with the battle of Longyou, Xinghan will make great efforts again.

After these two big projects, it is already most of the money and food that can be mobilized by letting the Xinghan Club smash in, so it is a little difficult to deal with Nanzhong.

Although there is a five-foot road in Nanzhong, after all, the ancient road hundreds of years ago is a bit difficult to keep up with the growing transportation demand.

This is also the reason why the development of Yueshan should be the last to come.

Because there are not enough Dian horses, how many things can be transported with manpower in the road conditions of Wuchi Road?

Only when the ranch and horse farm in the upper reaches can it provide enough animal transportation, and before that, the five-foot road can be repaired first.

For all the above reasons, the sugarcane plantations in the south of the Xinghan Society are basically distributed in the three counties of Zhuti, Qike and Jianning.

They are all places that can be reached directly by Five Feet Road, and they are also relatively northern.

These counties can now be said to be firmly in the hands of the Han Dynasty, and there are no obstacles in the places where government decrees are issued.

Not to mention Yuejun, which has long been one of the basic plates of the Xinghan Society.

As for Xinggu County, which went out in the southern part of the original Qike County, Yunnan County in the south of Yueshan, and Yongchang County in the southernmost part, most of the time it is still according to the old rules of the original history.

The Han Dynasty controlled the leaders of the major clans and the local tyrants, and indirectly controlled the localities through these chieftains and tyrants.

This is also a helpless thing.

No matter how capable Feng Junhou is, he can't get rid of various obstacles in the jungle, such as high temperature plagues, mosquitoes, flies, poisonous insects, fierce beasts and fierce birds.

As for road construction...... The infrastructure madmen of later generations have to wait for the strength to have the confidence to do it.

Feng Junhou is even more helpless in this era.

Therefore, for the southernmost three counties, we can only take it slowly, little by little.

Feng Yong believes that as long as there are enough interests, they can always drive those Shu families who have been cornered, so that they can restore the courage of their ancestors and overcome obstacles to expand their homeland.

"Zhang Bogong (Zhang Yi) is too anxious, since he came to Nanzhong, he has changed Li Dudu's previous tolerant attitude and strictly enforced the law against the Yiren, so there have always been Yiren dissatisfaction."

"It's just that it hasn't been many years since the Southern Expedition, Lord Yu En, cough, and Mingwen your Yu Wei is still there, so I can barely suppress it."

"I never thought that as soon as the news of this Xiao Pass came, I don't know who spread the rumors first, only that the ghost king had been sent by heaven, so the stone tablet witnessed by the ghost king back then should also be ......overturned."

The so-called stele is the stele erected by the prime minister of the Han Dynasty and the heads of various tribes in Nanzhong when he swore an oath in Wei County, which was witnessed by the ghost king who pretended to be a ghost.

At that time, King Feng also set off a lot of fireworks, which made people think that it was a vision from the sky, so they knelt down and licked it.

Therefore, over the years, the people of Nanzhongyi have cooperated with the development of Nanzhong by the Han Dynasty.

However, the Great Han Dynasty used the prestigious Yiren leaders in Nanzhong, such as Meng Huo and General Huo Aji, to stir up the concept of ghost kings.

Finally, the name of the ghost king is used to harvest leeks - that is, the ghost king witnesses the oath and strengthens the authority of the oath.

Now there are people who have learned the same way, and give back to the other in their ways:

The ghost king will be punished by heaven, that is, he has done too much evil, so the oath of the year does not count!

Feng Yong could imagine with his ass what slogans these birdmen would shout after they shouted to knock down the stone monument.

Don't you just want to make trouble?

Don't you just want to do the opposite?

He could even guess who would be involved.

There will be families who have lost power in Shu, and there will also be those wealthy families and tribal commanders in Nanzhong who are unwilling to lose their status as local emperors.

Of course, there will be people who have the same thoughts as Meng Shu in the early years: Liu Bei can be the emperor of Shuzhong, but I can't be the emperor of Nanzhong?

"At the beginning, the prime minister's southern expedition was half-begging and half-soothing, or even begging for appeasement, otherwise there would not be a practice of persuading his family to lower his high order."

Since it is mainly to care, it is natural that there will be some people who should be killed but not killed.

"It's just that there will always be some people who are lucky and think that the big men don't dare to kill them."

Feng Yong sneered, "This way of governance is to have tension and relaxation. Li Dudu was originally born in Nanzhong and treated him leniently; Zhang Dudu strictly enforced the law, which was to let those southern barbarians know the laws of the Han Dynasty. ”

"I happened to be calculated by Cao Thief under Xiao Guan, but I just gave them an excuse, even if there is no such thing, they will rebel sooner or later."

The plan of the imperial court, or the plan of Zhuge Old Demon, Zhang Xiaosi has already explained it clearly to himself.

If you don't find out those people who have ghosts in their hearts, how can Zhuge Old Demon carry out the plan to integrate the complete body of Shuzhong?

Now Feng Yong has every reason to suspect that Adou and Zhang Xingcai ran to Hanzhong, and it may not be a bait arranged by Zhuge Old Demon for some people in Jincheng.

At that time, as long as Nanzhong is reversed, some people will think that Jincheng will also have a chance......

Of course, this is just Feng Yong's own thoughts.

As for whether some people on the other side of Jincheng have the guts, I don't know.

How did Zhuge Qiao know that there was such a complicated intrigue here?

When he only heard Feng Yong's words, he already felt a little frightened:

"Listening to the meaning of the text, could it be that I had long expected that someone in Nanzhong would rebel?"

Where will Feng Yong admit it?

This kind of dark plan will damage the glorious image of the prime minister, and it can only be understood, not spoken!

I saw him shake his head and smile: "Brother, it's useless to talk about this now, you still continue to talk about the situation in Nanzhong." ”

Zhuge Qiao is an honest gentleman, yes, but honesty is not a fool, as soon as he saw Feng Yong's expression, he knew that he had guessed six or seven points correctly if he said less.

Immediately continued:

"In fact, there are also people in Nanzhong who have written to the Governor's Mansion, and it is very likely that the people of Li Chen Yi will rebel, plus I need to know your exact news, so I am in a hurry to return to Hanzhong."

When Feng Yong heard this, he was a little surprised: "Who?" ”

"Ma Yan."

"It turned out to be him." Feng Yong suddenly said, "If it were him, it would be no surprise that he could have this vision." ”

After all, he used to be a disciple valued by Zhuge Old Demon.

The place where Ma Tan was exiled was one of the three counties that the Han did not really have full control, Yunnan County.

Yunnan County has Yueshan County in the north and Jianning County in the east, which is the most likely target for the Han Dynasty to control compared to Yongchang and Xinggu Counties.

Ma Jian offered to be exiled there, and it can be seen that he did have a certain vision.

"Nanzhong, where will it be reversed, did Ma Jian say it?"

"Xinggu and Yunnan two counties."

This one is even less surprising.

is still the same sentence, Yueshan is the territory of the Xinghan Society, and Zhu Tijun did not oppose it when Meng was opposed, and it is even more impossible to oppose it now.

There is Ma Zhong in Qike County, and Jianning County is the seat of the Governor's Mansion.

Even if it is Yongchang County, it is the same as Zhuti County, when Meng is opposed, he can defend the desperate domain and devote himself to Han.

The rest are Yunnan and Xinggu counties.

"If my guess is correct, I'm afraid that my brother's return this time is also his idea, right?"

Zhuge Qiao's face stiffened, and he squeaked a little: "He did mention it, but the main thing is that I want to come back......"

Back then, Feng Junhou was extremely heavy, and beat Ma Jian to the point that he couldn't take care of himself, which was the kind of person who couldn't take care of himself in life.

Because after Ma Tan was beaten, he fell ill on the couch, and almost didn't catch his last breath, and he was almost about to let his family run to mourn.

In addition, both parties kept silent afterwards, and others naturally did not dare to ask the parties in person.

Therefore, in the eyes of uninformed outsiders, the grievances between Feng Junhou and Ma Jian are too big.

Zhuge Qiao naturally didn't know the twists and turns in this, so he didn't dare to admit this in front of Feng Yong.

It's Feng Yong, when he mentions Ma Yan, he can't help but think of the street pavilion back then, and he still remembers it vividly.

But three years have passed.

Time flies, and it really is.

"Ma Yan, is he okay with Nanzhong?"

Feng Junhou asked with emotion.

Zhuge Qiao misunderstood Feng Yong's meaning, he only said that he mentioned Ma Jian with many mouths, which reminded Feng Yong of the old grievances, and wanted to make some Ma Yan.

When the time comes, you will really hurt others.

"Mingwen, listen to my brother's advice, let him pass this past matter, Ma Tan has suffered a lot in Nanzhong in the past few years."

"Actually, he still has some talent. In the past few years, he has taken the lead in leading the Yi people up the mountains and into the water in Yunnan County, and personally taught the Yi people how to farm. ”

"Even LΓΌ Taishou (i.e., LΓΌ Kai) publicly praised his talents, saying that he was quite trusted by the local people in Yunnan."

"This time, he sent a communication to the Governor's Mansion in advance, so that the Governor's Mansion would beware of anyone making trouble."

"With your current status, there's no need to ruin your reputation for him......"

Zhuge Qiao was painstakingly persuading Feng Junhou, but the more Feng Junhou listened, the more strange it became:

"Brother, what are you talking about? When did I say I was going to be embarrassed by Ma Tan? There is no old hatred between me and him. Besides, he can be used by Lu Taishou when he goes to Yunnan, or I recommend it. ”

Hearing Feng Yong's words, Zhuge Qiaoden was dumbfounded:

"You still have a personal relationship with Ma Yan?"

"Ma Tan is the prime minister's disciple, how can I be regarded as half of the prime minister's disciple, isn't it normal for us to have a personal relationship?"

Feng Junhou said confidently.

"Not a personal grudge?"

"Brother, you've said this! Ma Youchang and I are gentlemen's friends......"
